About: Pet sitter with over a decade of experience. I currently specialize in pets with special needs: 🦴 Seniors 🦴 Deaf/blind 🦴 Rescues/Trauma informed care 🦴 Medication administration Formerly an early childcare director, so the safety & well being of your loved ones is my top priority. I am big on communication and enjoy sending updates, photos and videos while caring for fur babies. I work a very flexible job that allows me to be in and out of the house each day. Communication is paramount for me - prior to beginning services I will get to know you and your pet(s), and we will discuss your priorities and expectations to ensure a positive experience for your fur baby. At this time I am only offering services at clients’ homes. I have several references available for your peace of mind. I enjoy sending multiple detailed updates throughout the day, with pictures or videos as well! Comfortable administering medication and providing puppy, kitten, or senior pet care.

“Amanda has been wonderful with my dog and came through last minute to help with walks when I couldn’t do them. Kind, reliable, communicates well, and Henry is always happy to see her. I always know he’s in good hands!”

Alissa H.

“Iris was fantastic! She was able to help out last minute, even though we had never met before, and she immediately put me at ease. She showed up right on time, took great care of Tussey, and sent plenty of pictures during the walk. It was such a relief knowing Tussey was in good hands. Highly recommend and will definitely book with her again!”

About: I am a flight attendant with a bachelor’s degree in Animal science! So connecting with people and pets are my niche! Fur babies are welcomed! I can pick up trips to give me the most flexibility with my work schedule. I can do pop-ins as well as overnights if needed! I have experience working with cats and dogs at emergency hospitals and smaller veterinary clinics. I also have a indoor super sweet cat named snowbell.

“Charlie loves walking with Tracy. She has a calming and positive nature that helps with his high energy. He watches out the window for her. I really appreciate it, along with her flexibility with my schedule.”

About: I’m an experienced pet lover with a calm, nurturing presence and a deep respect for animals. I share my life with Bernie, my red standard poodle, who’s part social butterfly, part therapy dog, and 100% good boy. He’s taught me how important patience, consistency, and playfulness are when it comes to animal care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and even boarding depending on your pet’s needs. Whether your pup loves a long walk, needs medication, or just wants a cozy companion while you're away, I’m here to help. I’m dependable, communicative, and flexible—especially during the summer months. I take pride in treating every pet like family, creating a safe and loving environment where they can relax and thrive. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and energy levels—and I’m happy to tailor my care to your pet’s unique personality. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet! I’d love to learn more about your furry friend and how I can support you both. Right now I have a flexible schedule, so I can plan my days around what your pet needswhether it’s a morning stroll, a midday check-in, or overnight company. I know how important it is to have someone you trust with your furry family member, and I don’t take that lightly. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take caring for pets seriously, whether I’m coming to your home or possibly hosting. I currently focus on walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, where your pet stays comfortable in their familiar space. At home, I live with my red standard poodle, Bernie. He’s great with other dogs, but since I have a small one-bedroom apartment, I only consider boarding calm, dog-friendly pets on a case-by-case basis. I'm happy to talk it through and see if it’s a good fit!

“We are so grateful for Emilie. She is caring and detail oriented—the ideal person to look after our senior dog. Having her help has been a big relief when we need someone to stop in and take care of Lela.”

About: I've had 22 years of experience living with and loving black labs in south Minneapolis. I can accommodate dogs of any age. I love to be outdoors and enjoy walking. My work week is full; however, I am fully available on the weekends to dote on your pup. I am a teacher. From mid-August to mid-June my weeks are full. My weekends are open. I'm available over holidays. I am also available throughout the summer. I have a small home with a fenced-in yard and a park within blocks. For the past twelve years, I had a dog, and we walked every day. I greatly miss my companion and would love to shower your dog with lots of love and care.

“My dog Charlie is 50 pounds of energy very difficult to walk. I've only had her for about 4 months. She pulls and lunges towards other dogs and anything else with four legs. Lauren has handled Charlie very well and has been flexible with my changing schedule. I highly recommend Lauren. I trust her with my Charlie.”

“We would highly recommend Ben to care for your pets. He has a clear love of animals and is very professional and easy to work with. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing our dogs were being well looked after.”

About: My husband (Edgar) and I are lifelong pet owners (dogs, cats, a leopard gecko named Dottie etc.) with giving pets (young and old) safe, loving, and dependable care. We’re currently taking a break from having pets of our own. We miss the wagging tails, happy walks, and furry companionship, so we’d love the opportunity to care for and spoil your pets as if they were part of our family (getting all the love and attention!) We generally work from home Monday and Friday and my office is less than 10 minutes from home, so the days I work in office, I can swing home. We have a big yard to take your pet out, and we love to walk. Our jobs allow a lot of flexibility to stop home, if needed. We do not have a crate, but happy to crate.

“Great First Experience with Rover I used Rover for the first time to find a last-minute dog walker, and it was a fantastic experience. My walker was super communicative, accommodating, and made the process stress-free. I got updates, photos, and a happy pup at the end. Highly recommend and will use again!”

Bridget B.

“McKenzie is so kind and attentive to my boy. She made the time to come meet him prior to booking a walk and I feel comfortable and confident with him in her care. Thank you, McKenzie!”

Callie M.

“She has done wonderful with my fur baby. Very patient with great communication.”

Ashley E.

“Elena is always such a joy to have come & walk my 2 pups! They hadn’t seen her in a few months & they were SO excited to have her come back to walk them! She is kind, attentive to detail & very communicative! Highly recommend”

About: I'm a lifelong dog owner and lover who is looking to provide any dog care service you may need! I was a "dog nanny" for the last two years for one special pup, but I just moved and am looking for more dog-care opportunities! I have experience house-sitting and providing overnight care, dog walks (and runs!), puppy training- whatever you need! I'm currently working part-time and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care for your pet based on their needs! I can take them on walks, runs, play ball, or just let them out to use the bathroom. I cannot provide care in my home currently, but I treat any client's home with respect, keeping a clean & tidy environment while I am there. I will care for your pet the same way you do, with attention and love!

“Kayla was a life saver for me this past week! I typically work from home but was traveling for work - so Kayla came over during the workdays to take Barley for a walk. She was flexible, responsive, and loving towards my two-year-old golden. She even offered to bring Barley a raincoat when it was raining one day the days! I will definitely be using Kayla again on my next work trip!”
